I am running Windows XP Home and would like to run a virtual machine of XP, Server 2003, or Windows 7. Where can I find a VM image to download? The only XP image I've found only works on Windows 7.

Microsoft provides these Internet Explorer Application Compatibility VPC Image's that run for six months before expiring but they also do not allow for activating or registering. From Microsoft:

Granted these images only work with Microsoft products. If you search Microsoft.com as well there are developer prievew VHD's available for trial for other products
